ReviewsCustomer-Centric
by Design
We're a small team, which means when you write in, you're talking to someone who works on the product. Startups, agencies, and growing businesses stay with Maileroo because the support is real, the pricing is honest, and the infrastructure holds up.
"I love it as an SMTP service for transactional emails. The app is fast, easy to understand and fully featured, but not overwhelming, and email delivery is super fast and reliable. Just perfect! Every time I needed to request a feature or inquire about something with the team, they responded quickly and satisfactorily, both in their Discord channel and via email."
"I have been a Maileroo customer for almost 2 years now and I am very satisfied: Sending emails is super fast and reliable. The support is great and fast (usually within 1 hour). The interface is functional yet easy to use. You pay much less at Maileroo than at other providers without compromising on quality. In short, a great company to work with as an agency!"
"Using Maileroo for half a year now. Api and its documentation is simple, straightforward and just works. What truly makes the difference is the fast, personal support. Support is always quick to respond and to find a solution. Requests or suggestions are taken seriously and often translated into practical improvements. That level of personal involvement and service is rare and makes Maileroo a solution I can confidently recommend. Experience with mailgun, mailjet, sendgrid, resend and Maileroo takes the cake."
